Our Young Artists love to perform and we love to introduce them to our passionate supporters, many of whom are professionals from a variety of fields. Therefore every month, Revolution of Hope hosts “Practice Makes Professional” events where groups of professionals visit the Roxbury Youth Orchestra for an afternoon of music, professional exchange and mentorship.

The idea is for accomplished professionals to serve as an inspiration to our Young Artists, encouraging them to continue to work hard and aim high. Because as we all know, Practice Makes Professional, in music and in life!

Each Practice Makes Professional event lasts about 1.5 hours and typically takes place on Thursdays 4:30 to 6 pm.
The format is flexible but usually goes something like this:
-The Roxbury Youth Orchestra performs a short, private concert for Professional Guests
-Professional Guests talk to AMP Young Artists about their education and careers
-Q & A session (our Young Artists always want to know more!)
-Photos and mingling session over light refreshments for all
